Diagnostic tests which have
objectively established the
presence of chemical
sensitivities have
been inadequately addressed
or not addressed at all) by
many organizations concerned
with Environmental Illness
and ChemicalSensitivities.
Skin testing, RAST& ELISA
immunoassays have confirmed
the presence of chemical
sensitivities.

- Testing for chemical sensitivities:A necessary part of the evaluation of otolaryngology patients who have chronic illness
- Intradermal testing for chemical sensitivities: a double-blind controlled study
- Whealing has been repeatedly documented in the testing for chemical sensitivities
- Occupationally caused sensitization and IgE-mediated disease evidenced by RAST, ELISA and radioassay tests
CHEMICAL SENSITIVITY CAN AFFECT MORE THAN ONE BODY SYSTEM IN THE SAME PERSON
- Allergic Contact Dermatitis and new-onset Asthma
- Urticaria and Asthma in a 6 year old due to dental sealant
- Chemical Sensitivity causing Asthma, Rhinoconjunctivitis and Contact Dermatitis in the same patient
- Immunologically Mediated Occupational Asthma;Prolonged disability due to airway inflamation: Occupational Asthma and Contact Dermatitis in a Spray-Painter
- Dusts: Occupationally induced Dermatitis, Rhinitis, Bronchitis and Asthma
- Dual Chemical Sensitivity in a manicurist
HIGH PRODUCTION VOLUME CHEMICAL SENSITIVITY [HPVCS] AND CANCERS CAUSED BY HPVC
An HPVC is defined by the US Government as: A chemical whose production in America, and importation into America equals an amount greater than one million pounds per year.
- IgE-mediated sensitization, headache, cough, burning eyes, rhinitis and epistaxis (nose bleeds) due to Formaldehyde exposure
- Phenyl isocyanate is a potent chemical sensitizer
- Benzene Hematotoxicity
- Hematotoxicity in Workers Exposed to Low Levels of Benzene [less than 1 part benzene per million parts of air]
REACTIVE AIRWAYS DYSFUNCTION SYNDROME IS A CASE-SPECIFIC FORM OF CHEMICAL SENSITIVITY
- What is Reactive airways dysfunction syndrome?
- Nasal pathology and ultrastructure in patients with chronic airway inflammation (RADS and RUDS) following an irritant exposure
- Cleaning agents are airway irritants
- There have been a number of studies documenting an association between exposure to indoor allergens and development of both sensitization and asthma
PARTICLE AIR POLLUTANTS CAUSE RESPIRATORY DAMAGE
- Synthetic Monofilament Fiber Dust Exposures: The respiratory effects of occupational Polypropylene flock exposure
- Synthetic Flock Worker's Lung:Worker's increased risk of chronic nongranulomatous interstitial lung disease with histopathologic abnormalities such as lymphoid nodules
- Translocation of inhaled particles from alveolar spaces to lung parenchyma and lymph nodes
- Fiber dust accumulation in offices and health complaints
- Ventilation filters and compromised indoor air quality
- Studies show a strong correlation between airborne particles and the prevalence of some specific sick building syndrome
- Indoor particles and symptoms among office workers
